Dronfield

Dronfield is a town in North East Derbyshire in the North Midlands region of England. It is made up of three neighborhoods, which are Dronfield, Dronfield Woodhouse and Coal Aston. It is located in the valley of the River Drone, and sits in between the town of Chesterfield and the city of Sheffield. Dronfield encompasses an area of 3457 acres, and the A61 trunk road, Dronfield-Unstone Bypass, cuts through the town. Being in close proximity to the Pennines, Dronfield also has convenient access to the Peak District National Park, which is 3 miles away. It is considered that the town was in existence preceding the 1086 Domesday Book, and it has a 12th-century parish church. Dronfield has a past history of production, with coal mining, the wool trade, the production of soap and steel, and engineering being the most prominent markets. Some manufacturing companies continue to work within the town. The population of Dronfield has actually undergone substantial development since the post-war years, going from 6500 in 1945 to 21000 in 2011. This is somewhat the effect of the town's position as a dormitory community for workers from neighboring Chesterfield and Sheffield. The town is said to be the home of the largest independently owned housing estate in Europe, called Gosforth Valley, when it was developed in the 1970s. In spite of development and modernisation, the town has preserved its ancient character, with many historical structures staying unscathed. Occupants have a lot of opportunities for shopping at independent and commercial chain shops, visiting libraries and attending leisure centres. The world's oldest football team, Sheffield F. C., is based in the football stadium to the north of the town. For all your house upgrades, make sure to make use of reliable specialists in Dronfield to make certain of quality.

how much do painters and decorators charge?

How Much Do Painters And Decorators Charge?

If you’re thinking about painting your home or property, then one of the first things that crosses the mind is the amount charged by painter or decorators to carry out the project. However just like any other home improvement projects and as with most tradesmen, the amount charged by a painter and decorator largely varies from job to job depending on a plethora of factors. These factors include your location, the urgency at which you need the job done and whether or not a specialist equipment would be required.

For painters and decorators, one of the biggest influencing factors that determines the price to be charged is the size of the room. For instance, if you have a large room to be painted, it’s definitely going to cost you more than a smaller room. And same applies to multiple rooms when compared to single room. In other words, to get a more accurate cost estimate from your tradesman, you’ll need to have a good idea of the size of your room or rooms. So let’s take a closer look!

✓ Wallpapering a mid-sized room. This uses the logic as painting a mid-sized room but the price can differ due to difference in materials used. The price range here is between £204 to £420.

✓ Painting a large ceiling. Painting a ceiling is very similar to painting a wall but its not as straightforward and will consume more time. The price ranges from £286 to £5476.
